whoa, you can use a struct as a basetype for an enum? I'm
guessing it allows you to associate more information with the
enum without using lookup tables and the like? And equality is
probably just a memberwise comparison of the struct itself?
That seems interesting like an interesting idea,

No, you can't directly assign a string to an enum of type string. That's
part of why they don't pass isInputRange.
You can randomly assign a string to an enum? Or am I
misunderstanding that last bit of code?
Also it sounds to me like string enums are going to be slower
performance wise than integer enums.

Hey guys,
I was running through a tutorial and I noticed that enums can
have a base type of string. Which is interesting, but I'm
wondering about comparisons.
I'm guessing the comparison boils down to a pointer comparison,
but I thought I'd confirm.
